Where gluttony is no longer a sin.
Editor’s note: updated post for 2018 Once again, I will use another made up social media holiday as an excuse to give you some of my favorite pasta recommendations. The below are in no particular order, but you should know that my personal faves are the pomodoro pasta from Scarpetta, […]
GUYS. I finally visited Chicago! This has been on my list for ages, and it took me 34 whole years to get there. Crazy, I know. The attraction of Chicago (for me) was actually the same reason I stayed away from it for a while. Hear me out. As a […]
The definition of “sleeper” when used in this context, is “something that’s an unexpected success”. So when I say “sleeper burger”, I mean burgers that are delicious but fly under the radar at places you wouldn’t expect. Not burgers that will put you to sleep. Just wanted to be clear […]
One of the questions I get asked a lot as a New York food blogger is: “Yo. What’s a good ‘red sauce’ joint?” This is roughly translated to: “excuse me, good woman, where is the best place to dine on classic Italian food, preferably with a flavorful tomato sauce?” Now […]
Sitting in a white-walled, long and cavernous space near Cooper Square is The Bari – part Japanese, part Korean, mostly delicious. I say mostly because…this was one of those spots where consistency was a little lacking. Some dishes I thought were amazing, while some were a little underwhelming. Sorry but […]
Before I go into detail here, let me just say right off the bat: this was one of those experiences I’ll remember forever. 100% recommend this. Maybe even 200%. Here’s why I feel like my review of this is very important: because I don’t LOVE sushi. Cue gasp. Listen. My […]
From the team behind Rosemary’s, Bobo, and Claudette, owner Carlos Suarez adds another spot to his popular roster of restaurants in the West Village: meet Rosemary’s Pizza. If you’ve been living in NYC for a while (or your whole life, like me), you’ve probably brunched at Claudette, tried to get […]
Of all the fabulous neighborhoods NYC has to offer…Times Square is by far my least favorite. It’s a crowding issue. The energy can be amazing and I love the theater, but it’s very tourist-focused and busy, so the food is usually nothing to write home about. But that’s why I’m […]
Here’s a fun fact about me: I have a weird obsession with the 50’s, 60’s, and 70’s. The cars, the clothes, the music…it just seemed like a great era to be a part of. So when I was invited to The Springs, a new cocktail bar with a huge outdoor […]
Having been on my list for quite some time, I finally made it to Nickel & Diner. I had heard great things from friends and food bloggers alike, so I have to say it was being greeted with somewhat high expectations. The good news? They succeeded and maybe even exceeded. […]
